  1. These are liquid dyes, Sorry I wasn't clear on that.
  2. "Now if i add the dye before heating the plastisol it dissolves totally fine, but this is useless as i cannot create any colors, I would have to know recipes already"
  3. This is what's happening when I add Translucent Dye to heated Deadon Plastic.
  4. Hey Guys I have dead on plastic, purchased the "White swimbait/jerbait" and "Black Worm Soft/Medium I have some straight white, straight black, and mixed some 50/50 I'm new to all this but it doesnt seem right that this is happening I have a few opaque colors that dissolve fine into the heated plastic ( like bubblegum, hot pink, black etc ) without issue Typically i will heat in slow increments, stir, heat, stir etc. until past the gel stage and plastisol becomes clear and liquidly Usually around 320f ish at that point I'll add dye & create a color, then heat in 30-60 secs at a time again until past 350f as recommended by dead-on , then pour. So all my dyes are from Lureworks...The ones I'm having problems with are Blaze Orange 110 is 3 - TRANSLUCENT | SLIGHT BLEED, Cerise 211 is 3 - TRANSLUCENT | SLIGHT BLEED & Chameleon Dye 154 is 5 - TRANSPARENT | BLEED I Have wasted too much plastic Now if i add the dye before heating the plastisol it dissolves totally fine, but this is useless as i cannot create any colors, I would have to know recipes already I am reaching out to Dead-On to see what they say but any ideas ?
